Hello dear Blogging friends !! I wanted to join in showing my favorite top 10 projects I made for 2011. I sat here going back looking through my blog for the last year, well some I was so proud of and others I looked at and said OMG !!! lol It is funny how you change your style through the year.

But after picking and deleting I finally came down to my top 10.

I have to say that this first card is my favorite of all for the whole year. I so love the layout and the image is a very special Tilda and I have to say I love it.

Well it is the weekend !!! I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and a safe one at that. Me I will be home safe and sound !! So I Wish you All A Very Happy and Safe New Year!!!

Today I would like to show you a card I made for the Crea Shop Challenge Blog. I broke down and cut into these gorgeous Maja Design Papers from the Crea Shop and so I thought I would get a card made for the challenge before it closed. I have used this new adorable Tilda and she has been colored with my copic’s and I have used some Glamour Dust on the ruffles of her dress and the inside of the flowers.

The Challenge is playing Bingo so I went with Flowers, Heart and Swirl. I made a very simple CAS card for I just couldn’t cover up these gorgeous papers !!

Good Day dear friends !!! I hope everyone’s week is going well. It is almost the weekend for all the hard working people !!!

As for me, well I am still off work . Yes I went and seen the surgeon yesterday and he is not letting me return to work yet. I go back for another follow up in a couple of weeks

It is nice to be off work but not without a paycheck coming in. Plus I am really starting to get bored lol Yelp you read that right. i was sort of ready to go back to work. Maybe just not the long hours lol

But today I wanted to show you a couple of things I have made over the last few days that I finally finished.

First up here is a birthday card for my brother. I am not very good doing guy cards so no flowers here lol. But I have used Edwin here from Magnolia. He has been colored with my copic’s and the sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps. I have used a label from Spellbinders and some brads with spacers in the corner.

These gorgeous papers are from Maja Design that was from the Crea Shop. Oh how I wish we could get these papers here in the states !!!!!!!!

Next I finally finished a bag I needed to put a gift in and I used these adorable Hanglar images. Papers are from K&Co and I used Spellbinder corner die, Cheery Lynn Designs for the doily and a die from Tim Holtz for the bracket.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I have used a Magnolia leaf die and a MS branch punch. The lace was from my stash and I distressed the edges of the papers with distressed inks. And the border punch I used is from SU.

I also used a Viva Decor Pearl Pen to make some flat pearls on the corner dies. Susana has lots of Viva Decor Products in her store and am so loving playing with all these products.

Here is a close up of the bag.

Well that is it for me for today. I need to try to go do some cleaning and then hope to get some more play time in.

Thanks for stopping bye and visiting me and I so appreciate all your lovely comments you leave me. They do mean so much.

I was doing some blog hopping and came across this gorgeous layout that Camilla had done and just had to give it a try. I so love what she done. So I cased it.

I have used this adorable special Tilda from the Crea Shop in the Netherlands. This Tilda is for Breast Cancer and she was given to me as a Christmas Gift along with these gorgeous papers that I about cried when I cut into them from a very sweet special friend. Thanks hon. These papers are from Maja Design and I will be using them sparingly lol They are also from the Crea Shop.

Tilda has been colored with my copic’s and some Spica Glitter Pens. And has been cut out with the Spellbinders oval dies. Then I also used the Spellbinder frame behind it.

It’s Friday and that means a new challenge over at Just Magnolia and Hanglar Challenge Blog It is the first of the month and that means anything goes and this week I also set the option as Lots of Sparkle !!

Now my card really does have lots of sparkle to it but you can’t see it very well. But trust me it’s there lol

I have used Tilda here and she has been colored with my copic’s. I have used some glamour dust glitter paint for the fur, satine Mother of Pearl paint for the snow, some hologram glitter pen on my Memory Box die . And check out the holly on my poinsettia !! I used some Glitter Gel I got and man this stuff is awesome !!! You can use it on stencils etc. Has such a nice thick texture and so much sparkle. I colored a poinsettia flower with a purple copic and added twinklets all over it. All these products are from Susana’s Custom Art and Cards . This gal has so many neat products to use on your cards, I could spend and spend lol Then my snowflake is full of glitter. So I think I have covered the sparkle lol

Here is a close up of all the glitter , you still can’t see it that well, not getting a good pic today. But also check out the Glitter Gel on the holly leaf. Awesome stuff. Well I do hope you all come and join us this week. We have the wonderful Simon Says Stamp as our sponsor this week.
